Abstract: For the first time quantitative characteristics of floristic richness and peculiarities of lichen diversity of the large regions of Russia are submitted. By higher level of taxonomical richness and systematical diversity are distinguished Southern Siberia and North of European Russia which are including 70-80% of lichen species of other regions. The lichens flora of South Far East, Southern Siberia and Caucasus are differ by greatest originality at a level of macrolischens. The theoretical estimation of richness lichens flora of regions and Russia as a whole are given on basis of offered of study completeness index. Lichens diversity is higher in mountain regions, than in plains, and at same time in mountain areas it increases from the north at the south, whereas in plains the inverse relationship is observed. On the whole the lichens diversity and richness are increased at regions with a suboceanic or monsoonal climate and/or at mountain regions; plains territories are differ by smaller species richness and a low diversity, it is especial with a droughty continental climate.
